This has been reported almost two weeks but I thought I would do a quick post about it.
The Associated Press has reported on April 16th (see this article on Fox Soccer's website) that UEFA has finally released "a multilingual pocket dictionary of soccer terms to help players, coaches and fans bridge the language gap."
The booklet, which has been published by UEFA (European soccer's governing body) will cost 16.95 Euros (around 27 bucks) and will contain 2,000 official translations used by both FIFA and UEFA. However, the booklet only covers three languages (English, French--the official language of FIFA, and German), but UEFA is considering publication in Russian, Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese as well.
This booklet is of course a great idea. The only criticism I have is: why so late?
More on this as more information becomes available.
